What is about this job? Well thank you very much. Uh the university's commitment to being excellent in academics and in athletics and having *** chance to talk to *** D Hilton and their commitment to bringing the program to *** place where excellence is the norm was very appealing and I'm super excited to be here. You've got plenty of experience playing in the pros coach professionally level. You've had *** bunch of coaches that have led you along this way as well. Who have you heard from and how can you use some of their experiences to help you here on your first date coaching? So you know, Bill parcells gave me my entree into coaching back in 2006. Al grow has been *** great mentor for me. I can't say enough about Mike London, our head coach the last few years, especially at William and mary um all of those men have played *** very important role in my development as *** coach and as *** leader of the last four years in the CIA transitioning into this conference? How can you help this program get there with your experience having been in this conference and what is the program kind of assured you about helping you get this journey? Yeah, I think one of the things is that I know what it looks like and sometimes you can't put your finger on it specifically, but I know what an elite program looks like, how they dress, how they travel, they eat, how they train, how they practice. And those are the things that I think we have to aspire to become elite, How we practice, how we dress, how we train, how we eat, how we live, all of those things. And then the winds will come. If we, if we stay process oriented, the winds will come last question. What does the team look like on the football field? Next, very disciplined, tough competitive will fight to the end and will not beat ourselves. Thank you very much. Coach becomes the 22nd head coach in program history. We'll see if all of that comes to fruition on the football field next season. Quick it up for now, reporting on the campus of north Carolina and john johnson, W. X I II
